Are any of you guys in the military or have you ever served in the military? If so what branch of service and what rank did you get out? Tree huggin hippie draft dodgers, please do not reply.

My cousin was in the army reserve. Went to Iraq and got promoted to seargent by the time his tour in Iraq was over.

My cousin's friend and my friend who live down the street from my cousin was in Iraq. And he was driving a truck down a road in lead of a convoy. There was a guy peacefully sitting in the road, trying to block the convoy in a sort of peacefull protest you know. My cousin's friend had orders from the officer or whatever not to stop for any reason and he was forced to run this peacefull protester down. It really tears him up now, that event in his life. He was a nice kid too I only remember him from when I was young he used to live in a trailor down the street from my cousin and put acny medicine on his face at night when he used to stay over my cousin house. Sad story. Vive La Liberation De Iraque.

So in other words your cousin was a weekend soldier?
